Doctor Gregory House had just exited the R-rated bar after a night of "fun". He was slightly drunk, which, if you have ever seen a crippled man walk, is not a pretty sight. He got on his bike while popping a couple vicodin in his mouth. The engine hummed pleasantly as electricity passed through its circuitry. House revved up the engine and it clapped like thunder as he drove off into the night.

The cool are of evening hissed passed Gregory's face as he traveled down the road. He was driving along a rarely driven road, his eyes glued to the street in front of him. He felt unfocused and tired all of the sudden. He began leaning towards his right, the bike lost balance! He fell fast and landed hard. His flesh skidded across pavement, leaving open wounds. He stood up to get his bike back up, but was overcome with a sense of dizziness. A car came to a halt while coming upon him. House was exposed by the headlights of a red Dodge Neon. He stared blankly into them for a minute before passing out hitting the pavement again.

About twenty minutes later an ambulance had arrived after receiving a call for a startled sixteen year old.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you came! I didn't move him but I tried to keep him warm! I was afraid if I moved him it would have hurt him; so I-" The sixteen year old girl was cut-off by an officer.

"Ma'am I'm going to need to see your license." The man was tall and intimidating.

"I didn't crash into him!"

"I know but we still need to see your license."

"Okay." The blonde pulled out her wallet, and nervously handed it to the cops. This was the first time she had ever been asked for her license, and she couldn't help but feel she was being accused of something.

"Alright, you're clear to go, ma'am." The officer confirmed while handing her back her license.

Two paramedics pulled Houses body into their ambulance and were off in a flash. Gregory was rushed to the hospital, where his team learned of the news.

"He has alcohol on his breath." Dr. Cameron announced to her colleges with a look of frustration.

"Great, first with the vicodin addiction, and now on top of that we have drunk driving." Chase chimed in, equally as angry as Cameron. They rushed him into the ER, each one of them bickering over House.

When House woke up, he laid in bed, his head turned to the window, where outside snow had gathered on the window sill. He adjusted his body with slight movements, and heard a voice come from behind him.

"House?"

It was Cameron. He noticed her voice; irritated right now, but still the same.

"Do you treat all your patients like goldfish, Cameron? Or am I just special?" He said turning to face her. Behind Cameron, stood Chase and Foremen, with un-amused looks on their faces.

"House, just stop it." Cameron demanded. Cuddy entered with an angry look on her face.

"Well, everyone looks so cheerful." House said sarcastically.

"Why where you driving?" Cuddy demanded

"Well I had to get home some how." He smiled.

Cuddy obviously wasn't up for his sarcasm, but then again, was she ever?

"You know what I mean! You were drunk, House! You could've gotten yourself killed!" Cuddy crossed her arms and her eyes became wider in her anger. Cameron sunk to the back of the room where Foreman and Chase sat.

"I wasn't drunk, I forgot where I was, and lost focus." House retorted.

"We did your blood test. You were well over the legal amount of alcohol." Dr. Foreman retorted.

"Hey, where's my bike anyways?" House asked in a sudden change of subject.

"You totaled it." Chase chimed in. After hearing this House looked like he just lost a pet.

"I'm having Wilson take you home. Don't bother coming in for work tomorrow. You'll be to hung-over to do any significant work." Cuddy stabbed him with that remark.

As if on cue, Dr. Wilson entered the room. "Come on." He said disappointedly.

House limped out of bed, heading for the door. "You know, I could still come in tomorrow." He offered, knowing what kind of day he was in for tomorrow.

"Just go!" Cuddy said, rapidly pointing to the door.
